Action at a Distance Lyrics

Is it possible that what we've learned is wrong?
Is it possible we've been connected all along?

We move through time and space
Almost without thought
As though we know it all
Entities in motion
Watching the apple fall

Thinking what we know
Is everything there is
‘Cause it's all the eye can see
Maybe something hidden from sight
Can teach us a new reality

The action is frightening
Owing to the distance

Everything I am
Everything you are
Everything we were
And everything we'll be
Separate but as one
Our connection permanent
Always touching me
Always touching you back

Subatomic strings
Play a secret melody
An inscrutable link
In defiance of what seems to be

Nonlocality

Everything I am
Everything you are
Everything we were
And everything we'll be
Separate but as one
Our connection permanent
Always touching me
Always touching you back

No time, no space can divide us
The force unknown, but it unites us

Butterfly's wings can cause a change
In what we observe
When we can't comprehend the connection underneath
The suggestion seems absurd

No space can divide us
No time can imply that we are separated
No distance can breach that strong connection
That will bind

Everything I am
Everything you are
Everything we were
And everything we'll be
Separate but as one
Our connection permanent
Always touching me
Always touching you back

Structures fold and waves collapse
Systems linked by causes unknown
Particles chained by invisible bonds
Waves form again and vibrate as one

Butterfly's wings can cause a change
In what we observe
When we can't comprehend the connection underneath
The suggestion seems absurd
Is all this behavior
The key to a door
That opens to an understanding
Richer than we had before?

The dancing forms in subatomic space
Mysteriously entangled
With building blocks that wear a Janus-face
Binding each to something more

(A) And if these elements are elemental
Then we are all the same
Our conflicts should be so inconsequential
Our differences mundane
Taking this to logic's end would mean
Our universe is one
The implication, though it seems extreme
Is all of us are connected to
(B) Universal
Emanating
Light descending
Illuminating
(C) Everyone we've touched
And thought that we had lost
We're never apart
We're never apart
I feel your presence
I know you feel mine
I feel what it means

EVERYTHING
